History was made at New York Fashion Week today: Jamie Brewer was the first model with Down syndrome to walk during the major style event. You may already recognize Jamie, who is known for her role on the popular TV show American Horror Story, and now she can add runway model to her résumé. Jamie took…

Kanye West had a runway show for his Adidas collection at New York Fashion Week yesterday, and friends and Kardashians alike turned up to support. Kylie Jenner walked the runway, and Rihanna, Big Sean, Alexander Wang, Jay Z, and Beyonce were in attendance - but the whole evening can be summed up in this tweet…

We’ve seen the craziest beauty trends from New York Fashion Week, and now it’s time for the beauty looks you can actually wear. There were lots of wild looks at NYFW including rainbow brows and words spelled out of hair, but there were plenty of hair and makeup ideas that work off the runway. The best…

Jimmy Kimmel sent a camera crew to New York Fashion Week to ask people their opinions on made-up designers, and not one of them missed a beat in diving right into a lie about knowing all about Chandler Bing's fashion line. Because the fashion world is borderline ridiculous, these unsuspecting folks also didn't blink an eye…

One of my favorite trends out of NYFW so far are the array of leafy palm-prints from designers like Tracy Reese and Yigal Azrouel. From full-on palm trees to more abstract, close-up fronds, palm prints are a sophisticated alternative to regular ol' florals. And you don't have to wait until spring to wear them --…

Nearly every day I'm wearing something on my person that came from J. Crew. I am a disciple; an unofficial, uncompensated walking advertisement; a diehard fan of their toothpick jeans, Capri flip-flops, Everly pumps and assorted overpriced sweatshirts that I refuse to buy unless they're on sale. And come spring, I…

Models are good at being gorgeous walking clothes hangers -- and I'm sure they each have their own individual talents -- but one thing they're seemingly not so great at is twerking. Nicki Minaj dropped by the Alexander Wang show at New York Fashion Week and tried her best to teach the models some of…

Hey guys, I'm off to Cinque Terre in Italy and all I'm bringing with me is an Italian dictionary, a camera and a suitcase full of all the clothes from Rebecca Minkoff's Spring/Summer 2015 collection. Ciao, prometto di scrivere! Just kidding. I'm not going to Cinque Terre and I certainly don't…

Rachel Comey consistently makes clothes for the most glamorous arts and crafts teacher you've ever met in your life. Her latest collection shown at NYFW is no exception. Tons of volume -- one can't be too encumbered when in the midst of a macrame project! -- a mixture of neutrals and…

While I love clothes, spend way too much time pinning shit I cannot afford on Pinterest and love assembling fake outfits in Photoshop for regular style features like One Times Three and Fashion Math, I do not consider myself a fashion person. That's probably why writing about my favorite shows at…

The only thing I love more than a bold print is multiple bold prints worn together, dammit! That's why I'm so hot for many of the looks shown at Tracy Reese's Spring/Summer 2015 runway show. Reese is known for embracing bright colors and standout fabrics, but I absolutely loved how she…

Gingham was a big component in Diane Von Furstenberg's NYFW runway show this week, and while her designs won't be available until spring 2015, there's no reason why you can't rock the hell out of some gingham now. Here are 13 pieces to…

Designer Carrie Hammer began her "Role Models Not Runway Models" campaign earlier this year to feature and design for professional women who are underserved in the fashion world. In February, Hammer included a woman in a wheelchair in a runway show, not realizing at the time that her show was the first…

When I think of gingham, I envision picnic blankets and pizza parlor tablecloths and 1950s' school girls -- I don't think of ass-kicking lady bosses with six-figure salaries and about as many boytoys. But that is exactly what the gingham -- accented with splashes of bright colors and island-perfect prints --…

If I had a big ol' budget for clothes and the power to snap my fingers and commission an entire wardrobe from one designer, I would immediately call up Mara Hoffman, hand her a briefcase full of dollar bills, and ask for her to just give me everything from her spring/summer…

"I think the fashion world needs to come to grips with reality. The reality is you have the whole country electronically connected. They’re educating the insides of their heads, as they should, and not [dressing] the outside with a fancy hat or a dress. Simple clothes, that's key, and I think that's what the fashio…

It’s that time of year again! That is, time for the the human clothing hangers better known as models to strut down the catwalks of Lincoln Center in beautiful, expensive and sometimes absurd designer clothing, for the Fall 2014 runway shows. Each day, we’ll present to you a selection of noteworthy shows so that, even if you…

Simply Irresistible

Taking a page out of those girls you went to high school with who can't stop smugly posting every detail of their perfect lives on Facebook, Lady Gaga shaded America's youngest grandma Taylor Swift just perfectly on Twitter yesterday. It all started when Jaime King's unborn child's godmother tweeted about Gaga, using the preferred…

Oh look, it's hottest DILF alive, Ryan Gosling, making a rare appearance in public grabbing lunch in LA today. And what's that I see? In addition to his perfectly worn T-shirt (that collar is stretched just so), hoodie and leather jacket, the Gos is rocking a few faint letters on his knuckles, spelling out the…
